Since ErisROM crashes GPS,GoogleMaps - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
I have tested the BeHeroRom and it is realy nice,
But my biggest problem now is, i flashed back my nandroid backup (MCR3.2) and now I've problem with GPS and GoogleMaps. GoogleMaps make FC and GPS will not start.
Killed Eris my GPS?
Sorry for my bad english.
Have someone the same problem?
Please, help me!!!!
Johnny

Your english is better than mine, I'm chinese.
Try these:
1, wipe your phone(Even try deleting your apps data on sdcard). Of course you've backuped them before doing so.
2, roll back to your nandroid back up again.
You know, some times flashing a rom or a backup will not wipe your data totally, so you need to do it your self.

Hi Jokies!!

Since that, try flashing a new radio.
All radios fit in GSM hero are here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563757
you can flash them just like flashing a new rom. Wipe is not needed.

f**k, I think by blocking the ErisROM GPS is.
I,ve wiped und clear the dalvik-cache, flashed a new ROM and nothing happened.

[Q] Strange Problem with Froyo VillainROM 1.5

Hi,
I am new to rooting and recently flashed my hero with VR1.5. Everything seems working fine for few days and suddenly, I am getting below prolems.
1. my network reception is going blank as soon as I switch off wifi.
2. phone became very slow and FC few times.
Are these know issues with ROM ? Please advice about item 1, as it is drowning my phone. (sorry if spelling mistakes as my native language is non-english)

hope it helps

Flashing to stock HTC ROM is not the same as Wipe. You wipe it in recovery

Yes, I think. I did recovery wipe and flashed VR1.5
Maybe something just went wrong with the install?
... try a full wipe and fresh flash, should fix it

But you're using a completely different rom. You're asking in the wrong place!

1. If you mean that when you turn off WiFi you have no 3G for a minute or two - that is completely normal for android as it disables 3G whilst WiFi is enabled. It takes a little while to connect sometimes. If you mean the signal levels to your service provider - that's completely different and a very odd issue to say the least.
2. Slow with FC's usually means something in the wipe didn't work properly or some apps are conflicting. Try a fresh install (without backups if possible) and see if they carry on happening. Then try restoring the backups (after say a week or so) and see if it comes back.
Alot of this is trial and error. We have no idea how your phone is set up and which apps you have installed etc.
I will say that it is not usual to see either of these issues and a wipe and reflash has the best likelyhood of fixing the problems.

Big cm7 problem

try restoring 1nce may be it will help
restore carefully and only what you need.
what data are you restoring? is it from 2.2?
Try reflashing cm7 zip without wipe (after restoring). I've got this bug a few weeks ago, and for me this resolved the problem.
Sorry for bad english.

Do I need to wipe data after flashing an official firmware?

I have heard mixed things on this subject, I haven't wiped my data after updating to KI3 and there are little to no issues (I have gotten about two force closes since it came out).
I also heard that if I root I lose my data, is that correct?
If you aren't facing any problem then don't but otherwise do a Full Wipe. Before doing than make Backup with Titanium.
So if I experience any issues, then root, back up and then wipe? I haven't rooted yet and the only use I will get from it is backing up. But that is useful thank you.
i don't think so just make a backup !!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not quite sure what you mean.
IF you don't experience any problems don't wipe, you're alright already. Now, if you have problems, wipe your data, but then you'll have to reflash. You don't wipe after flashing, you must do it before flashing.

Well, when flashing from a very different firmware to another things might not work well, and the problem is you on't know what's causing the problem. At least I always do a full wipe since I backup all my apps with titanium backup pro so set my phone again takes me little time. Try your phone for a couple of days and just wipe if you need to, if not keep enjoying it as it is.
Thanks! Everyone has been very helpful.

Oh No...

My 2nd topic in about 20 mins!
I've just flashed Siyah Kernal but made a mistake and flashed an older version accidently (I flashed 1.3 instead of 1.7)
Now my phone doesn't boot, it gets to the loading screen where it displays model etc and then stops. I can boot into recovery, I was thinking I can just flash the other kernal but I don't have it on my storage.
I wiped cache then davlik cache and then installed the old version and rebooted and now I'm stuck
I'm thinking just wipe data and reflash ROM but I've never messed around with kernals before so I don't know if it's any different
Help is GREATLY appreciated!
If you have an external SD, transfer the updated 1.7rc1 syiah to that, and flash it from recovery.
Should solve the problem.
If it doesnt, wiping and reflashing the rom, then the corect kernel should work as well.

I would start with that.. if any problems occur, then go to wiping.
I would wipe delvic and cache
Update Syiah myself a few times without a wipe. Although I am sure some would recommend a wipe.
I've just put my external SD into its adapter so that my laptop can read it and I get write protection errors.
Can I just wipe data/factory reset and reflash the ROM to gain access to my phone again and then flash the kernal?

first off is the switch on ur adapter set to lock?
Yes if you factory reset and wipe, then install rom, then you can flash the kernel and enjoy all the benefits!:victory:
aaaaand I'm back!
I noticed the little slidy thing on the adaptger and put it the other way and it worked, having that "lock" is pretty ridiculous if you ask me.
I'm all sorted now, I would be useless if it wasn't for the people on this forum
Thank you all so much for the help, whenever stuff like this happens I overact and instantly assume my device is bricked
Thanks to you all!

Whatsapp and Instagram not working after ICS update

Hello!
So, I updated my GT-P7500 yesterday to the ICS stock version. Since then I haven't been able to use whatsapp, nor instagram.
I've tried reinstalling both apps, to no avail. I've also performed a factory reset, to see if it would get the apps working again... everything else works fine on 3G.
By the way, I can't really test to see if those apps will work on wifi.

Uninstall both apps...
Boot to recovery and wipe cache... and then reboot..
Reinstall apps... if that doesn't work...
Uninstall the apps..
Then go into you're app manager and uninstall the playstore updates( do it on both the playstore apps listed.. if you have two )..Do not uninstall the apps themselves. Since it sounds like you're not rooted. This shouldn't be an issue, but I had to put it out there.. for you're safety..
After that..boot back to recovery and wipe cache... reboot..
Reinstall apps...... let me know what's up..

Just tried uninstalling the updates on the playstore and cleaning the cache, and it still didn't fix the issue.

Since you're rooted... do you have a custom recovery( cwm or TWRP )
If so wipe dalvik with the cache wipe and see what happens..
I'll look around for a better solution

Yeah, I have the cwm.
I wiped the dalvik cache and it didn't fix the issue...
I've noticed youtube app is not working as well.
I can tether the connection and open youtube normally on my laptop, though...

Sorry for the late reply... but from what I can tell.. this is a known or atleast consistent problem with other users... I haven't seen any fixes, but you might try an older version of the apps and see what happens..

Hey Gil!
I've managed to solve the issue, so I will post here my solution. If anyone facing that problem step by this thread, he or she might have a chance solving it.
I had given up solving it, and downloaded CyanogenMod 10.1...
I did a factory reset on my tablet, and tried to flash the cm through cwm... For some reason it didn't work, it gave me an error.
Kinda pissed, I decided to try once more to solve my issue or give up and go for another rom, such as gambarou.
I re-flashed the stock ICS using odin.
Booted and voilĂ , everything worked!
Thanks for your help, Gil! =]

That's great... and thanks for posting the answer..
I must ask.. did you re-download the stock ICS file.. if so.. the first might have been a bad dl... if not.. then I guess during the first flash, something went sideways..
either way.. glad you're up and running at full speed..
